Hi,
I'm trying to get !YTPlay to work. It complains that
SharedLibs:lib.ld-riscos/so/1
is not found as does Python.
I looked in Packman & there are several Shared Libs there. How do I ascertain which, if any, is the one I want?
It's in the SharedLibs package.
http://www.riscos.info/packages/arm/Develop/gcc/SharedLibs_4.0-Rel5-1.zip although you should ideally install it via PackMan.

Thanks. I presume that's the same as "The shared libraries directory & ELF loader" which is the first one in PackMan.

Yes, but if you've installed Python via PackMan, it will sort the
shared libraries out for you (assuming that you've not confused the
system by hand-installing any shared libraries at some point).
You can also install YTPlay via the package on Raik's site (not the
manual Zip file): drag the package to PackMan, and it will sort the
packaged dependencies out for you and leave you to do the manual bits
at the end. It's the file marked as
Download als RISC OS Package-file (without "Lite"): YTPlay
Thanks, Steve. I was watching Dog Webb's presentation on the WROCC videos
& then I stumbled across YTPlay pre-installed on my RiscOSBits Pi Hard, presumably by Andy. Pythons3 & 27 were in the same directory but I know
not at this stage if they've been properly installed. I'll continue to 'speriment when time permits.

It might be worth waiting for the June issue of The WROCC, which I'm
editing this week: Doug's post-meeting notes should be included and are
quite detailed (thanks, Doug!). There's also a comment in them about pre-existing installations of Python being unhelpful.
The problem with packaging stuff is getting things that were installed pre-packaging under control at the start. RISC OS is the only platform
where this is an issue (on Windows or Linux you'll install the OS via
package management to start with), sadly.

Are you using Iris? Iris installs its own version of SharedLibs and
knocks out the default system version. This stops Python working.
To use Python I quit Iris and run an obey file containing:-
filer_run SCSI::SSD.$.!BOOT.Resources.!SharedLibs
Python then can find what it wants
